Our
Napili vacation rentals on West Maui are adjacent to Lahaina, which is on the National Register of Historic Places. Ideal sandy beaches, laid-back atmospheres, small markets and art galleries create the lovely seaside spot for whale watchers, golfers, surfers and travelers who love a variety of outdoor adventures.Also within the region is Kapalua town, with resort spas and golf.
Things To Do
Families and couples both find our
Napili vacation rentals as a place for them. The crescent-shaped beach area is a place for solitude during strolls on early mornings and lots of splashing around on a sunny afternoon. Clear days include views of Molokai and Lanai. The beaches on this part of the island offer year-round swimming and snorkeling because of the Leeward location and shelter from big waves. A busier beach is Kapalua Beach and worth the trip for lava rock against calm waters.Other water sports include snorkeling Honolua Bay and exploring the Olivine tidepools.
Lahaina's Historic Trail is an opportunity for self-guided touring of sites and areas of this seaside town. The harbor, old courthouse and Banyan tree are significant to see of the 62 sites. Golfers will find the courses at Kapalua Resort, the Bay and the Plantation, worthy challenges with wonderfully distracting views. Kapalua is home to the Wine & Food Festival, which spans four days is a food affair every June, so if you're visiting during that time, try to attend one or more festivities at the event.
Eat And Shop
Seafood, upscale dining, seafood markets, sushi and breakfast overlooking Napili's shores are all part of a foodies' stay in this area. Innovative, Pan-Asian and comfort favorites created with an island twist are available for a night out and plenty of grocery stores and small markets offer local food and items for a night in or a picnic on the beach. The area is also home to multiple farmers' markets and small marts with fresh produce, juices, sweets and more.
Whalers Village in Lahaina offers unique contrasts to the funky art galleries, making shopping possibly more than a browsing adventure. Shirts, jewelry, souvenirs and gourmet foods are a few of the products to buy in the Napili area.
Getting Around
Napili on West Maui provides an advantage of close proximity to other towns in its area, specifically Kapalua and Lahaina, so it is best to rent a car.

Exploring Lanai Island - Dolphins, Tidepools and Lunch at Manele Bay!
While staying on Maui one activity I would recommend is to take the Expeditions Ferry over to the neighboring island of Lanai. The crossing is only 45 minutes and you will have the chance to explore another island! The ferry is for passengers only (or bicycles - no autos). - Hawaii Ferry Ride - A Day Trip From Maui To Lanai - 11.30.-1
